Steps to Unlock Bootloader on Android

Go to Settings and enable USB debugging mode on your device.


Also, enable OEM unlocking and Advance reboot mode from the Developer options.
Note: Older Android devices may not have these options. So if you don’t find these
options anywhere, skip this step.
Download and install ADB drivers on your Windows PC.
Using a standard USB cable, connect your Android device to a PC.
Furthermore, ensure that Mobile USB drivers are installed on your PC.
Go to the location where you’ve installed ADB and Fastboot drivers. (For example,
C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder).
Then by holding the shift button of your keyboard, right-click on space.
From the list, choose the Open command window here option. This will launch the
command window.

With this command, a message saying ‘List of devices attached’ along with a few
random numbers will appear.
That means it will confirm that your Android device is successfully connected to
the PC.
